Glen,
yes, ImageMaster will do this Blade Runner-type image enhancement very well, if
you start with a high-resolution scan, so that the last zoom still shows some
detail instead of a blurry mess. (this enhancement gadget is _science-fiction_,
remember. You can't expect your computer to come up with missing information on
its own.) So you take a sharp 35mm snapshot, have the negative scanned at a
service bureau, save it as a TIFF (I guess — ImageMaster will handle several
IBM and Mac formats) and bring the image to your Amiga.
By the way, the Black Belt BBS has a macro called "Zoomulator" which will
automate this zoom-in effect for you.
Blaq!
